Do These Things Right Now

  1. 1

    Shut off your main water supply

    The shutoff is usually at your water meter, under a sink, or in your utility room. This stops the water immediately.

  2. 2

    Cut electricity to wet areas

    Go to your breaker panel and cut power to any circuit in the affected area. Never wade through water near electrical outlets or panels.

  3. 3

    Document everything NOW

    Video and photograph all damage before touching anything. Walk through every affected room. This is critical for your insurance claim.

Common Emergencies in Tucson

Tucson, Arizona's desert climate creates counterintuitive water damage risks. The summer monsoon season (June 15–September 30) delivers intense flash flooding events — caliche soil (hardpan calcium carbonate layer 6–30 inches below grade) prevents water absorption, channeling monsoon rainfall into streets and low-lying structures at volumes that overwhelm storm drains within minutes. AC condensate overflow is the #1 water damage claim type in Arizona — a 3-ton AC unit removes 5–8 gallons per day, and a clogged condensate drain floods ceiling assemblies within hours. Pool equipment plumbing (backwash lines, return lines) fails in Phoenix-area heat after 5–7 years of UV exposure. Standard HO-3 covers AC failures; monsoon flooding requires NFIP or private flood insurance.

  • Santa Cruz River flooding
  • Swamp cooler water damage
  • Supply line thermal expansion failures
